How to graceful handle SIGTERM

[janisz]

Question

Let's assume I have an spring boot application. Then I wan't to shutdown it. I'd like to sent SIGTERM and after defined grace period SIGKILL. Is it possible to catch SIGTERM and perform some actions, close controllers and then after all pending requests been processed shutdown application?

So far I tried to register shutdown hook but it's doesn't work.
